Untitled Instrumental (A Little Guitar)
As it sounds, two clean, one fuzz guitar.
I did write this with you in mind! It echos some of my earliest
tapes also.
____________
My Whole Life Has Become
I have all of these memories,
that come on back to me.
I don't know to do!
I don't know what I should do with them...
I don't know why they come to me…
Without a Single Thought in Mind
(time...time...time..)
Without a,
Without a single,
Without a single thought in mind!
And the World holds no Place,
or a Thought.
This World…
Fear In Our World
There's changes in our world
There's changes all the time
And I get to see like you
They all won this time!
There's fear in our world…
All I Can do is Try
Move towards my window,
try to get out.
It will not open,
I got a clue what it's about.
I have it on good authority,
I may not be the best…
Conflict of Spirit
Just a conflict of spirit
Just a conflict of spirit
Just a conflict of spirit
You can't escape yourself
Just a conflict of spirit!
This…
No Escape From This World
There's no escape from this world
People claiming to be peace makers
To soothe the people on the streets
They hide their own lit cards
Annouce its for…
I don't really have that much to say
when I've been at work all day
frustration,
connotation,
all the things that fit inside
I don't understand
how I am to fit in this
big atomic antiracial economic plan
its your life
its your life…
Something To Say To You
I'm looking to say to you
Some sort of message to get thru
I'm looking for someplace to place to you
Is there room in your mind?
I'm looking for something…
In Your Little World
You start out with conversation
Seemingly innocent enough
No one see the concentration
How the thoughts are in the rough....
In this little world
In this little world that
Spins around inside…

A Fool's Paradise
They say, Hey Look!
The armies are receeding!
Times are changing
Can't you feel it in the air?
Its Just Fool's Paradise...

Lovingly, Kavena is written for a picture of a woman in my grandparent’s family photo album. Not sure what the relationship was. Perhaps Kavena could have been my grandmother but ultimately was not. Or perhaps she was just a close friend. In either…

A short improv piece. I'm starting a new project, where I will post at least one improv video/recording online each week, and at the end of each month collate them into an album.
This is the first one. Since July is almost over, I figure I…
This is a tune that's been on the back burner for a bit. I was looking to get a dark Ultravox kind of sound. Anyone feel like puttin' on their Midge Ure hat???
Anyway, these aren't the droids your looking for.
Move along..............Move along.
Finally, the finishing touches seem to be put on this three-year-old song thanks to some very talented people.
The band is:
Liam (age 13 at the time of recording) on drums
A Girl Named Sam (she's no kid!) with the backing vocals
Genevieve…
A few of you know I accidentally wiped out one of my SD cards that had all my works in progress on it. I'm just starting to piece it all together again - A slow process. This was supposed to be a reprise to "In My Head", but ended up being in…
I have issues at my house, sometimes they manifest themselves in my tracks. In this case, the bassoon and oboe represent the mouse. The guitar is the peanut-butter.
this is one inventive piece! what a mix - are you sure you didn't grow up south of I-10 in Louisiana? You have that Cajun blues thing down and who'd expect you could get oboe and bassoon to work so well with it! wow.
Hi - thought I'd throw up an older piece today while I have time (doing work at the new house later). This is an improvisation with my Fender Mustang / Roland GR-20 combination retuned on the fly to 9 notes per octave "Sorog" tuning. I think…
Yes, as a matter of practicality one performs with volume greater than the actual Fender (headphones to the GR-20, amplification of the Roland GR-20 ) - although I have mixed the "normal" and "new" tunings together and in some cases that sounds nice and fairly unique.
Really nothing more than some voice leading practice. Unfortunately, I had no keyboard or orchestral samples when I did this, so I used Lilypond and TiMidity++ and step programmed it in a text editor. I've since bought Cubase and EastWest/QuantumLeap…
As chance had it, I found myself in an acoustically great room, full of cajons! Well, they were unfinished cabinets actually, but they had lovely tones. Since this is the stuff dreams are made of, I had no choice but to seize the opportunity and…
well.... tell your wife you'll build her a new addition if she lets you keep this room as is :-)
nice - the sound is so surprisingly robust and resonate in tone.
Caveat emptor: I did absolutely none of the drumming in this piece.
WORLD PREMIER! FIRST RECORDING OF THIS PATTERN - EVER!
My friend Kokou "Alex" Yemey called me a few days ago with some urgency in his voice: "I must record this before…
It seems a lot of you record with open mics and can relate. I record 1 track at a time with usually 4 or 5 tracks. So, Im only asking for about 15 minutes of Silence...IS THIS TOO MUCH TO ASK??? Anyway, my house is so loud, I get a lot of bloopers…
Hi, The Suicide is programmed actually and uses Kontakt sounds. I have a large number of manuscripts which I created in college and shortly after (before 90's no computer program I had could let me score reasonably). In this case, The Suicide, was scored at an upright piano and I could play it at the time. Its really easy to play.
The last track that I'm going to upload for a while. I will be re-recording a few songs to release a LP under my own name. Hopefully it'll be good :)
This one is another exploration using loops and delays. I hope you like it!
Comments on vaisvil's stuff
Playful, cheeky guitars.
Love the bass groove in this one and the transition from the chorus back to the verses - very clever.
Heady stuff, overlapping invention...
Dreamy, electro punk prog. That's you.
Nice grungey rhythm.
Menacing electro, batman!
Nice bluesy undertones.
Liking these heady electro anthems.
Brimming with charm! I want to take the world Put it in my arms Give it a big hug I feel the same about the planet, less so about the world.
Quirky and perky.
Big sound!
Do I detect Lennon influences in some of these tracks or perhaps the era in general?
Good track! Nice phrasing in the chorus.
I like the harmonising guitars.
These are natural and live recordings Chris?
Good track. Same band?
Great little foot tapper!
You guys were a great band. This recording has bags of atmosphere. Listen to Steve going for it. Fab!
Beautiful...both.
Hi Chris, well played. Ah, all sorts of emotions going on here. The story is fascinating.

nicely done~!
interesting ! What is your set up? It sounds as if you were recorded in a hall.
I especially like parts I and II - nice work!!
boy, are you ever going through a creative period - everything is sounding top notch - I love the percussion + ambiance style here. World electro?
interesting aggressive minimal electro
nice themes!
Sam sounds like one of the Indigo Girls :-) Very nice song everyone!
this is very good - like the solid vocal harmonies and leads.
this is one inventive piece! what a mix - are you sure you didn't grow up south of I-10 in Louisiana? You have that Cajun blues thing down and who'd expect you could get oboe and bassoon to work so well with it! wow.
This is a great tune - I love the percussion and the deep deep sounds.
Yes, as a matter of practicality one performs with volume greater than the actual Fender (headphones to the GR-20, amplification of the Roland GR-20 ) - although I have mixed the "normal" and "new" tunings together and in some cases that sounds nice and fairly unique.
nicely done - sounds a bit floydish. Introspective Roger Waters.
all of the compositions are wonderful - I feel emotion from your work.
this is a very nice progression against a pedal point and exposition. I agree the room acoustics are really great - it sounds great!!
very classical period sounding.
well.... tell your wife you'll build her a new addition if she lets you keep this room as is :-) nice - the sound is so surprisingly robust and resonate in tone.
wow - this is complicated!! and cool!

wonderful!! So this is in part classical guitar? If so great tone!
bizarrely the opening bass riff sounds like the theme to green acres - a usa 60's sitcom.
